Visionary AMB Particle, hands down earliest ball ever made, go to www.bowlerscellar.com and buy it.

In the past, Centaur AMB Particle, Midnight Scorcher, Trauma Response, Track Animal, Hammer 4D HPT, La Nina, Total Shock and Awe were all super early. These days, as stated, take an aggressive solid, think Hyper Cell, Mastermind, Sync, etc, and hit it with 360-500 abralon, and it will be plenty early. You could even consider looking into the Lanemasters stuff. Don't they still use a lot of particle?

In OOB surface, the strongest I have ever used/seen is the Motiv Raptor Talon.

Add a Complete Chaos and a Gold Angle to that list.

My Gold Angle would start hooking BEFORE it hit the lane!!!

HA! If you thought the Freight Rain was early, you should have tried the Train.

Truth. My Train was feet earlier than my Freight Train.

I briefly had a midnight scorcher that was really early...  other ball that comes to mind was a BP Goliath...  no surprise, both were high load particle covers.

I had the opportunity to work with Mo Pinel yesterday and after watching me throw a few shots it was determined that because of me being very speed dominant that I needed an early hooking ball.  We walked into the proshop and Mo asked the PSO what he had in stock that would hook at my feet.  Mo was looking for a Ruckus Fued or a Mastermind in particular.  The Mastermind was in stock so we went with that.  Wow, what an amazing ball.  Combined with some pitch adjustments and the layout, I now get a back end reaction that I never thought possible!
